“Now I finally know why Lei Dong that kid would become brothers with you.”
Whilst speaking, Su Chen crossed his arms as he looked below the mountain.
At this point, the group of people who gathered here had mostly left. Even the people the sects sent to manage the place had mostly left, leaving the entire place in a mess.
Zong Shou was on the side, giving an awkward smile. Although they were brothers, the 2 of them didn’t even speak much. On the contrary, he had received Lei Dong’s care several times. At this moment he was slightly curious about Lei Dong’s situation.
“How is my Brother? Did he return to that miss Zhenru’s side?”
“You have also heard of Miss Zhenru? Hey, that fellow is probably fighting to the death with that spirit sword Ruo Tao.”
Su Chen smiled, his face radiant with delight,” He left for many years and broke his heart barrier with much difficulty. I heard that not Long ago he entered the grandmaster realm, now we will have a good show to see…”
Following which he smiled, “Speaking of spirit sword Ruo Tao, I have to mention the 3 pinnacle swords that rose up in the cloud world one generation after me. These 3 people are top swordsman produced within these thousands of years. However in my eyes, your highness as the ability to stand toe to toe with them. The 3 pinnacle swords of the cloud world should change to 5. As expected when the spiritual wave arrives, heroes will appear. Talents like you might not appear even in hundreds or thousands of years, however, this time 5 popped up at the same time.”
“Brother Su compliments me too much, what ability and talent do I have, I don’t dare accept that name!’
Zong Shou shook his head with a solemn gaze, following which he asked curiously, “The other choice for pinnacle sword is it the new direct disciple of the Sword Sect?”
“That’s right! Wow, I didn’t think that you would know him. I have seen him before, even without being able to merge spirit and martial arts into one, he is still a pinnacle person. Although his sword path isn’t connected to the spirit like yours he has grasped sword intent. In my eyes, his foundations are even better than yours! Only this person seems…”
Frowning a little before he sighed like he wasn’t willing to say anymore. His eyes looked at the teen who was standing solemnly not far away, smiling, “This teen is called Gong Yue? He seems born to use the sword, although I don’t know his talent his bone structure is great. You want him to join Wujue Villa?”
Zong Shou took a look and felt helpless, “This person is my friend and I want to help him. Unfortunately, I have many things to handle and can’t be distracted to teach him.”
His words sounded old and experienced and sounded like something not befitting of him, totally not compatible with his young and tender face.
When the people around heard that they all burst out into laughter. Su Chen was also delighted and understood what he meant. He knew that the teen beside him, in terms of sword path, within the entire cloud world, there weren’t many who could compare to him. If he could teach him and help him all out, it would be his great fortune.
However, he was stuck with a huge city with 100 million population. The prosperity and fall of a country of 12 provinces were in his hand. If he got busy, he wouldn’t be able to do anything.
Taking in a deep breath, Su Chen nodded his head, “I will agree to this matter. However, there’s no need to enter Wujue Villa, Lei Dong that kid is unreliable. If your highness values me why not let him enter my Hanshan School?”
Zong Shou was delighted and bowed as a form of thanks. Although Hanshan couldn’t be compared to Wujue, it was still the 8th shrine and it was one of the pillars of the sword sect.
Gong Yue was really surprised as he bowed towards both Zong Shou and Su Chen.
The latter laughed and directly took his leave. Before he left he said solemnly, “Although the matter today has ended, I think Brother Shou has to be careful. Allow me to be direct, large sects like mine have many schemes and underhanded means—I have seen loads of them. Lingyun Sect will be unwilling to let things end like this…”
After he said that, sword energy wrapped up Gong Yue as they stepped towards the north.
Zong Shou’s brows rose up as he entered deep thought. He wasn’t the only one who said those words to him today.
After a moment his thoughts were broken by Jin Buhui, “Why didn’t you let Gong Yue join my Haoxuan Sect? Although that Hanshan sect is not bad, my Haoxuan Sect is stronger than them. Not only me, even senior Brother Chen has high hopes for that Gong Yue. Spending a few years in the inner sect, with your face, there’s an 80% chance he can become a direct disciple!”
His tone was filled with unhappiness.

When Zong Shou came back to his senses he looked towards this new friend with a weird expression, “Your Haoxuan sect is indeed a good choice but your sect is too righteous. Are you prepared to see Gong Yue go all out to kill his elder Sister?”
Jin Buhui instantly exclaimed and was enlightened. Thinking about the situation, Sister fighting Brother, Gong Yue was trained in a righteous way and couldn’t have thoughts in his mind to wipe out his family. He wouldn’t be able to slash out that sword. He won’t have many achievements in the righteous martial techniques for the things he would learn in the sect.
People of the sword sect chased the sword like it is their life. Although it is one of the righteous path pillars of the cloud world, they weren’t that strict regarding the personality and actions of their disciples.
Unfortunately, Gong Yue’s matter was a freebie for Hanshan School. It wasn’t that this person had great talent, it was just that it was a good chance to connect with Zong Shou.
Thinking back to that person who was buried in the nine yin land, Jin Buhui felt his head hurt, lowering his head and pulling at Zong Shou’s sleeves, “Brother Zong! This matter started because of you. You must think of a solution to that matter and help me. I Jin Buhui, no! Also, the Haoxuan Sect has badly offended that nine yin witch…”
Zong Shou mumbled in his heart thinking to himself what solution does he have? When the nine yin witch appears is when death energy is the strongest. If she wants to search for revenge, apart from those celestial path experts who left the cloud world who could stop her?
However, he also knew that he couldn’t totally stay out of this matter. He sighed, “I can only try my best. I hope that she will still have the memory of her last life then.”
Thinking about it, Jin Buhui felt that that was it, he could only sigh. Following which he heard Zong Shou asked with deep meaning behind, “Brother Jin have you heard of the Yin Dragon Canyon? I heard that the ancient relics there are about to appear. Is your Haoxuan Sect interested?”
“Yin Dragon canyon?”
Jin Buhui instantly entered deep thought, “That place was seen by the Donglin sects as something in their pocket. If my sect interferes its a little inappropriate.”
Zong Shou knew that that was the case, he didn’t hope that Haoxuan Sect would join in right away and be his pillar. He said expressionlessly, “It was the case before but now a thousand miles of land around that place is under me. I decide who can enter. If I invite your sect, who can say anything?”
Jin Buhui’s brows furrowed and he was a little tempted. In the end, he was unable to make a decision, sighing helplessly, “I can’t make the decision on this, I can only return and ask my masters. Anyways I am a little tempted.”
Zong Shou smiled and stopped forcing him. He then changed the topic and talked about his comprehension of the nine martial saint remnant images. Whilst they spoke it was mostly Jin Buhui asking him for pointers. Zong Shou didn’t hide anything, apart from the nine dragon shadow sword’s more core techniques he answered everything else and was really detailed.
It wasn’t until the day slowly turned dark did Jin Buhui stop and sigh, “Zong Shou your comprehension is 10 times better than mine, I am filled with respect! If I didn’t ask, I would have thought I comprehended most of the 9 walls. In the end, after I asked, I actually missed out so much of it. Forget it! The night is late, Dragon Shadow Martial Saint is probably waiting to speak to you. If I continue on, this senior might be angry with me for not knowing my place. I will take my leave now. See you in the future…”
After he finished he bowed, saying solemnly, “I know Su Chen. He is someone who would take revenge and would pay back kindness, he is famous for being untamed and arrogant. However, his words were true. Brother Zong needs to be careful of Lingyun Sect. With your cultivation, beating the direct disciples of 3 sects and becoming the only successor to Dragon Shadow. Within a few days, you will shock the cloud world. However you have to be careful, a tree in strong wind will break. There are too many scums in the world. Dragon Shadow saint is hundreds of worlds away and there are many things he can’t help you with. You have to be careful!”
After finishing, that golden fatty left in a swaggy manner.
Zong Shou’s lips curled up, he knew that his master could communicate mentally with him.
He could also split his focus into 2 as such his conversations with others wasn’t interrupted. However, he had finally sent away these friends one by one.
In the last life, the many changes meant that he was basically a nerd. However, he also had several good friends which he was close to which helped him so much. If it wasn’t for those few people, he wouldn’t have been able to climb up.
In this life he was fortunate, be it Lei Dong or Jin Buhui, they could be considered great friends and good teachers. Not only were compatible with one another, but they were people he could get close to.
On this broken peak, in a blink of an eye, only Zong Shou and Zong Yuan remained. The latter quietly sat at the side, the purple lighting spear placed in front of his knees.
Zong Shou took out a little bottle from his sleeves, a weird look appearing in his eyes.
“Master, what is the use of this? Such that you see with much importance?”
The little bottle was one that Wu Hua left before he left. to say that it was a gift to him, Zong Shou knew that it was to buy the life of Long Ruo and the other 2.
“This is the magnificent spirit jade marrow. Right now, it is of no use. In the future when you go for the heaven barrier, you will know that this is a great item. However Lingyun Sect’s riches are too thin, there are only 7 drops, what a lack of sincerity.”
After Dragon Shadow spoke, he scoffed coldly, “without this item, even if Wu Hua called those few world protector venerables to come over, I would kill Long Ruo and the other 2 on the spot.”
